...Ometepe Island ...Nicaragua...6th March 08...
...two Volcanos-CONCEPCION & MADERAS-in middle of LAKE NICARAGUA-Central America's biggest lake-over 30 rivers flows in to here then the lake empties it in to the CARIBBEAN via one narrow river-this lake contains rare freshwater BULL SHARKS intially migrated from Caribbean...both above volcanoes were separated by water until after many eruptions both united in a single island...we stayed on Concepcion-town called MYOGALPA-went around in local buses...Altagrcia other town on Maderas...
...while we were there BBC came here for few days with some 12 handicap people-filming them climbing both volcanoes...programme will be aired late 2009 on BBC1...
....riding local buses in Nicaragua...buses are known as CHICKEN buses by travelers as anything and everything is carried on the bus by locals...sometime there are more Chickens on thebus then pessengers ...we loved it!
